Abstract: A body temperature-indicating clothing device is provided. The device is comprised of a piece of clothing comprised of at least one sensor that measures the body temperature of the user. The temperature is then communicated on the clothing via a display or via a color change in the material of the clothing to alert a wearer to their current body temperature.

Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for extending the depth of a subterranean borehole that uses heated aqueous fluid to dissolve rock of the subterranean formation. The heated aqueous fluid comprises water and hydroxides of Group I elements of The Periodic Table of Elements and mixtures thereof. The drilling system comprises means for delivering aqueous fluid and heating the aqueous fluid prior to contacting rock of a subsurface formation.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for escalating messages to a user concerning events of importance to the user comprising receiving information concerning an event, evaluating its importance to the user, and if the event is determined to be important enough for the user to be contacted, selecting a first way of contacting the user and using that first way to do so, waiting for a period of time for the user to respond, and if the user does not respond, selecting a second way of contacting the user and using that second way to do so.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for taking action in response to an event without contacting at least one person if the level of importance of the event to a first person meets or exceeds one threshold, but is below or only meeting another threshold.

Abstract: A single-array memory employs a novel storage cell providing dual read/write access via either an "A"-side or a "B"-side. The storage cell uses a unique circuit in which read current is borrowed during writing into the cell. Asymmetrical read/write delay circuitry is provided to avoid overwriting the contents of a storage cell during the read-to-write transition. Row-selection decoders use Schottky-clamping diodes in a way which provide an equivalent oscillation-damping capacitance at the base of the selected-row driver transistor. The single-array memory can be advantageously used as part of a single-chip VLSI four-port register file permitting simultaneous reading and/or writing of registers from any of two read ports or two write ports, respectively. Unidirectional busses connect each storage cell to each of the four ports.
